Actress Jodie Foster is directing an episode of Netflix’s House of Cards season 2, according to a new report.

Although Netflix won’t confirm the news, Vulture says that Foster is currently in Baltimore, Maryland and working on a House of Cards season 2 episode.

As the publication points out, Foster is no stranger to the internet streaming service. She directed an episode of another Netflix hit: Orange is the New Black season 1, episode 3 “Lesbian Request Denied.”

House of Cards season 2 stars Kevin Spacey, Robin Wright, Michael Kelly, and Kate Mara. The forthcoming batch of episodes is expected to follow Frank Underwood’s path to running for President of the United States (after successfully paving his way to a nomination in season 1).

Expect the new season to premiere in early 2014. As they did with season 1, all of the episodes should be released simultaneously and exclusively on Netflix. With such a large audience now attached to the critically-acclaimed series, we bet fans will race to complete the new season.

Foster most recently starred in Elysium as Delacourt. Thanks, Vulture.

That’s cool. I hope Fincher will direct another couple of episodes, but I feel that’s unlikely.
